Abstract
The reactive nitrogen species (RNS) in lysosomes play a major role during the regulation of lysosomal microenvironment. Nitroxyl (HNO) belongs to active nitrogen species (RNS) and is becoming a potential diagnostic and therapeutic biomarker. However, the complex synthesis routes of HNO in biosystem always hinder the exact determination of HNO in living cells. Here, a rhodamine-based fluorescent probe used to determine nitroxyl (HNO) in lysosomes was constructed and synthesized. 2-(Diphenylphosphino)benzoate was utilized as the sensing unit for HNO and morpholine was chose as the targeting group for lysosome. Before the addition of HNO, the probe displayed a spirolactone structure and almost no fluorescence was found. After the addition of HNO, the probe existed as a conjugated xanthene form and an intense green fluorescence was observed. The fluorescent probe possessed fast response (3 min) and high selectivity for HNO. Furthermore, fluorescence intensity of the probe linearly related with the HNO concentration in the range of 6.0 × 10-8 to 6.0 × 10-5 mol L-1. The detection limit was found to be 1.87 × 10-8 mol L-1 for HNO. Moreover, the probe could selectively targeted lysosome with excellent biocompatibility and had been effectually utilized to recognize exogenous HNO in A549 cells.

Abstract
Depression is a debilitating mental illness that poses a serious threat to human health. Nitric Oxide (NO), as an important gasotransmitter, is closely associated with the pathogenesis of depressive disorders. Effective monitoring of NO fluctuation is beneficial for the diagnosis of depression and therapy assessment of antidepressants. Currently, there is a lack of effective methods for rapidly and sensitively identifying NO and elucidating its relationship with depression diseases. Herein, we developed a NIR dye TJ730-based fluorescent probe TJ730-Golgi-NO incorporating benzenesulfonamide as a Golgi-targeted moiety and the thiosemicarbazide group for NO detection. The probe exhibited turn-on fluorescence ability and a large Stokes shift of 158 nm, which shows high sensitivity, selectivity, and rapid response (<1 min) for NO detection. TJ730-Golgi-NO could detect exogenous and endogenous NO in cells stimulated by Glu and LPS, and target Golgi apparatus. Moreover, we disclose a significant increase of NO in the depression model and a weak fluorescence evidenced in the fluoxetine-treated depression mice. This study provides a competent tool for studying the function of NO and helping improve the effective treatment of depression diseases.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) typically manifests as higher invasive carcinoma correlated with a worse prognosis that primarily relies on chemotherapy. There is growing evidence that nitric oxide (NO) donor drugs have the potential for anticancer therapy. On this basis, we constructed and evaluated a novel coumarin-furoxan hybrid 4A93 as an effective antitumor candidate drug. 4A93 exhibits low IC50 values in three TNBC cell lines and inhibits colony formation and DNA synthesis, probably due to the release of high concentrations of NO in mitochondria, which induces oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and apoptosis. Further research suggests that 4A93 might destroy mitochondria by opening the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), depolarizing the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and promoting the release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm. Intrinsic apoptosis is induced finally, along with Akt/Erk signaling suppression. Additionally, 4A93 underregulates the Epithelial-mesenchymal transition process to inhibit cell migration and invasion. In 4T1 subcutaneous and hematogenous models of mice, 4A93 therapy suppresses the tumor growth and prevented lung metastasis with favorable biosafety. Our results provide insights into 4A93 in TNBC treatment and validate the contribution of NO donors in tumor therapy.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) plays critical roles in both physiology and pathology, serving as a significant signaling molecule. Recent investigations have uncovered the pivotal role of lysosome as a critical organelle where intracellular NO exists and takes function. In this study, we developed a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe called XL-NO and modified it with a morpholine unit, which followed the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism. The probe could detect lysosomal nitric oxide with high selectivity and sensitivity. The probe XL-NO contained a secondary amine moiety that could readily react with NO in lysosomes, leading to the formation of the N-nitrosation product. The N-nitroso structure enhanced the capability in push-pull electron, which obviously led to the change of fluorescence from 621 nm to 521 nm. In addition, XL-NO was discovered to have some evident advantages, such as significant ratiometric signal (I521/I621) change, strong anti-interference ability, good biocompatibility, and a low detection limit (LOD = 44.3 nM), which were crucial for the detection of lysosomal NO. To evaluate the practical application of XL-NO, NO imaging experiments were performed in both living cells and zebrafish. The results from these experiments confirmed the feasibility and reliability of XL-NO for exogenous/endogenous NO imaging and lysosome targeting.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a destructive autoimmune disease, where nitric oxide (NO) is closely implicated in the inflammatory processes of RA. Therefore, direct visualization of NO is essential to assess the pathological changes in RA. Herein, a mitochondrial-targeted near-infrared ratiometric fluorescent probe (NFL-NH2), based on the intramolecular charge transfer effect, was synthesized and applied to monitor the changes of NO content in early RA. Specially, probe NFL-NH2 showed a 44-fold fluorescent intensity ratio (I705/I780) response toward NO with a detection limit of 0.536 nM, enabling qualitative and quantitative analysis of NO. Additionally, NFL-NH2 can accurately target mitochondria and sensitively detect exogenous and endogenous NO in RAW 264.7 cells. Notably, in vivo RA monitoring assays demonstrated that NFL-NH2 can rapidly detect NO levels associated with the inflammatory damage degree in RA mice models by ratiometric fluorescence imaging. These results validate that NFL-NH2 holds significant potential for diagnosing NO-mediated RA diseases.

Abstract
Neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies have made significant progress in cancer treatment. However, tumor adjuvant therapy still faces challenges due to the intrinsic heterogeneity of cancer, genomic instability, and the formation of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Functional materials possess unique biological properties such as long circulation times, tumor-specific targeting, and immunomodulation. The combination of functional materials with natural substances and nanotechnology has led to the development of smart biomaterials with multiple functions, high biocompatibilities, and negligible immunogenicities, which can be used for precise cancer treatment. Recently, subcellular structure-targeting functional materials have received particular attention in various biomedical applications including the diagnosis, sensing, and imaging of tumors and drug delivery. Subcellular organelle-targeting materials can precisely accumulate therapeutic agents in organelles, considerably reduce the threshold dosages of therapeutic agents, and minimize drug-related side effects. This review provides a systematic and comprehensive overview of the research progress in subcellular organelle-targeted cancer therapy based on functional nanomaterials. Moreover, it explains the challenges and prospects of subcellular organelle-targeting functional materials in precision oncology. The review will serve as an excellent cutting-edge guide for researchers in the field of subcellular organelle-targeted cancer therapy.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide and are not typically diagnosed until the disease has manifested. Endothelial dysfunction is an early, reversible precursor in the irreversible development of cardiovascular diseases and is characterized by a decrease in nitric oxide production. We believe that more reliable and reproducible methods are necessary for the detection of endothelial dysfunction. Both nitric oxide and calcium play important roles in the endothelial function. Here we review different types of molecular sensors used in biological settings. Next, we review the current nitric oxide and calcium sensors available. Finally, we review methods for using both sensors for the detection of endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The discovery of a potent photosensitizer with desirable immunogenic cell death (ICD) ability can prominently enhance antitumor immunity in photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, majority of commercially-available photosensitizers suffer from serious aggregation and fail to elicit sufficient ICD. Pyroptosis as a newly identified pattern for potent ICD generation is rarely disclosed in reported photosensitizers. In addition, the photosensitizer with excellent mitochondria-anchored ability evokes prominent mitochondria oxidative stress, and consequently induces ICD. RESULTS Herein, a novel supramolecular photosensitizer LDH@ZnPc is reported, without complicated preparation, but reveals desirable pyroptosis-triggered ability with mitochondria anchoring feature. LDH@ZnPc is obtained through isolation of ZnPc using positive charged layered double hydroxides (LDH), and excellent mitochondria-anchored ability is achieved. More importantly, LDH@ZnPc-mediated PDT can effectively initiate gasdermin D (GSDMD)-dependent pyroptosis of tumor cells. In vitro and in vivo results verify robust ICD ability and potent tumor inhibition efficacy, and antitumor immunity towards distant tumor inhibition. CONCLUSIONS This study reveals that LDH@ZnPc can act as an excellent pyroptosis inducer with simultaneous mitochondria anchoring ability for enhancing photodynamic therapy and boosting antitumor immunity.

Abstract
Twenty-three new coumarin-furoxan hybrids were synthesized, which exhibited nanomole antiproliferation activities in A2780, A2780/CDDP, MCF-7/ADR, and MDA-MB-231. Among them, compound 9 showed the strongest collateral sensitivity to MCF-7/ADR with 499-fold potency compared with MCF-7. Notably, the solubility of compound 9 increased 70-fold compared with the lead 2. And preliminary pharmacological studies displayed that compound 9 obviously increased Rh123 accumulation in MCF-7/ADR and released NO to produce ROS in lysosomes, which were able to damage lysosomal membrane and induce apoptosis. These results reasonably explained that the collateral sensitivity of compound 9 to MCF-7/ADR was closely related to P-gp-mediated lysosome damage and apoptosis. Additionally, compound 9 showed a very weak cytotoxicity both in MCF-10A and hERG potassium channels and had a desirable safety in ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) mice. Hence, compound 9 was merited to further study for developing a desirable candidate against MDR MCF-7/ADR via a potential mechanism of collateral sensitivity in MDR cancer cell lines.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes for the detection of intracellular nitric oxide (NO) are abundant, but those targeted to the mitochondria are scarce. Among those molecules targeting mitochondrial NO (mNO), the majority use a triphenylphosphonium (TPP) cation as a vector to reach such organelles. Here we describe a simple molecule (mtNOpy) based on the pyrylium structure, made in a few synthetic steps, capable of detecting selectively NO (aerated medium) over other reactive species. The calculated detection limit for mtNOpy is 88 nM. The main novelty of this probe is that it has a simple molecular architecture and can act both as a fluorogenic and as a mitochondriotropic agent, without using TPP. mtNOpy has been tested in two different scenarios: (a) in a controlled environment of cell line cultures (human colon carcinoma HT-29 cells and mouse macrophage RAW 264.7 cells), using confocal laser scanning microscopy, and (b) on a much more complex sample of peripheral blood, using flow cytometry. In the first context, mtNOpy has been found to be responsive (turn-on fluorescence) to exogenous and endogenous NO stimuli (via SNAP donor and LPS stimulation, respectively). In the second area, mtNOpy has been able to discriminate between NO-generating phagocytes (neutrophils and monocytes) from other leukocytes (NK, B and T cells).

Abstract
Fluorescence spectroscopy is a significant bio-analytical technique for specific detection of nitric oxide (NO) and for broadcasting the in vitro and in vivo biological activities of this gasotransmitter. Herein, a benzo-coumarin embedded smart molecular probe (BCM) is employed for NO sensing through detailed fluorescence studies in purely aqueous medium. All the spectroscopic analysis and literature reports clearly validate the mechanistic insight of this sensing strategy i.e., the initial formation of 1,2,3,4-oxatriazole on treatment of the probe with NO which finally converted to its carboxylic acid derivative. This oxatriazole formation results in a drastic enhancement in fluoroscence intensity due to the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) effect. The kinetic investigation unveils the second and first-order dependency on [NO] and [BCM] respectively. The very low detection limit (16 nM), high fluorescence enhancement (123 fold) in aqueous medium and good formation constant (Kf = (4.33 ± 0.48) × 104 M-1) along with pH invariability, non-cytotoxicity, biocompatibility and cell permeability make this probe a very effective one for tracking NO intracellularly.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important gaseous signaling molecule related to various human diseases. To investigate the biological functions of NO, many strategies have been developed for real-time monitoring the NO levels in biological systems. Among these strategies, fluorescent probes are considered to be one of the most efficient and applicable methods owing to their excellent sensitivity and selectivity, high spatiotemporal resolution, noninvasiveness, and experimental convenience. Therefore, great efforts have been paid to the design, synthesis, and fluorescence investigation of novel NO fluorescent probes in the past several years. However, few of them exhibit practical applications owing to the low concentration, short half-life, and rapid diffusion characteristics of NO in biological systems. Rational design of NO fluorescent probes with excellent selectivity and sensitivity, low cytotoxicity, long-lived fluorescent emission, and low background interference is still a challenge for scientists all over the word. To provide spatial-temporal information, this article focuses on the progress made in the organic and metal complex-based NO fluorescent probes during the past five years. The key structural elements and sensing mechanisms of NO fluorescent probes are discussed. Some novel ratiometric, luminescence, and photoacoustic probes with low background interference and deep tissue penetrating ability are mentioned. All these probes have been used for imaging exogenous and endogenous NO in cells and animal models. More importantly, this article also describes the development of multi-functional NO fluorescent probes, such as organelle targeting probes, dual-analysis probes, and probe-drug conjugates, which will inspire the design of various functional fluorescent probes.

Abstract
A series of novel N≡C-CH2-B-F system BODIPY were designed and synthesized by introducing aldehyde and acetonitrile units which gave positive influence to spectroscopic and chemical properties of BODIPY derivatives. The effects of glycine (Gly) on the target products were studied via ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometry (UV-Vis) and photoluminescence (PL) under different conditions of the presence and absence of cations (K+, Ca2+, Zn2+). It was showed that glycine has an intense quenching effect on the compounds in both the presence and absence of ions with a dramatic color change from notable red to light orange owing to the addition of Gly. With regard to cells imaging investigation, the products showed the prominent fluorescence in cholangiocarcinoma cells. The luminescent effect of compounds 1 and 3 entering the cells was significantly stronger than that of compound 2. In addition, pertaining to anticancer properties, two human cancer cell lines (RBE, HCCC-9810) and one normal cell line (L-02) were evaluated for in vitro cytotoxicity. The target compounds, 1-3, exhibited moderate antitumor activity, of which compound 1 was found to be the most potent derivative with IC50 values of 119.31 ± 6.25, 114.73 ± 3.25, and 106.33 ± 5.22 against RBE, HCCC-9810, and L-02 cells, respectively, slightly weaker than the positive control 5-FU.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes for biothiols have aroused increasing interest owing to their potential to enable better understanding of the diverse physiological and pathological processes related to the biothiol species. BODIPY fluorophores exhibit excellent optical properties, which can be readily tailored by introducing diverse functional units at various positions of the BODIPY core. In the present review, the development of fluorescent probes based on BODIPYs for the detection of biothiols are systematically summarized, with emphasis on the preferable detection of individual biothiols, as well as simultaneous discrimination among cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), reduced glutathione (GSH). In addition, organelle-targeting probes for biothiols are also highlighted. The general design principles, various recognition mechanisms, and biological applications are elaboratively discussed, which could provide a useful reference to researchers worldwide interested in this area.
